I want to be able to load an external text from an http request to a string in my flash application.
i know that with loadvars i can load variables, when the output is as: key=value&key=value.. but this is not the case here. i get in return a string with several random characters. how can i properly retrieve them ?
I resolved the issue by applying toString() on the return object of the onLoad event using an XML object:
var x = new XML();
x.load('url');
x.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success)
var data=this.toString();
}
